"First, you have to let them understand what it means to curse," Chen Zhao added.
"…" It was obvious that this was impossible.
Risfar didn't continue asking. Chen Zhao clearly didn't want to say.
Chen Zhao and Dell brought Faith and the Silly Twins away. Risfar was still staring at the door, deep in thought.
Chen Zhao looked at Faith, who had woken up. Faith immediately reached out from Dell's arms, wanting to jump into Chen Zhao's arms.
"Uncle Chen, hug."
Chen Zhao took Faith. "You're awake?"
"Uncle Chen, are you leaving?"
"Yes."
"Black-Ma and White-Ma are leaving too?"
"Yes."
"When are you coming next time?"
"Why me? Can't you come to my place?"
Faith turned to Dell. "Dad, can I go to your place?"
"Of course." Could Dell say no? Obviously not …
"Chen, stay for dinner?"
"No, I'm busy."
…
"Mr. Felwood, hello."
Chen Zhao arrived at the construction site beside Mirror Lake. Felwood walked out wearing a safety helmet.
Felwood was very responsible. As the boss of the construction company, he attached great importance to Chen Zhao's project.
He attached great importance to Chen Zhao's project. When Chen Zhao came, he was almost always there to supervise the work.
Of course, it was also possible that the company was short of manpower, so he had to supervise the work.
"Mr. Chen, hello."
"How's the project going?"
"We've poured concrete and steel bars into the foundation. We're now intercepting the lake water outside," Felwood explained as clearly as possible.
Chen Zhao knew what the lake water was for. The design of the building was partly in the lake, so the water had to be intercepted during construction. Then, the part of the building would be built in the lake.
"Mr. Chen, to be honest, the soil's pH is a bit low. Some of the plants we originally planned to plant might not be able to survive."
"Do you have any good suggestions?"
"During construction, we'll dig up a lot of silt from the lake. I can have the workers spread the silt in the surrounding area. The silt is high-quality soil for vegetation, but it'll only cover the area around the mansion. Beyond that, it'll still be bare and monotonous."
"Then help me dig up more silt and lay more. If you need more money, we will calculate separately."
"Mr. Chen, I'd love to help you, but we don't have the ability to work on water, nor do we have the authority to do so."
"So there's no other way?"
"It's not completely impossible. I've seen the geographical environment here. Mirror Lake eventually flows into the inland river of downtown Los Angeles, but the river is not wide enough for big boats to come in. Mr. Chen, you can widen the river to make it more convenient for water traffic. If you have a yacht, you can come in too. You can also build a port by the lake, and the silt in the river can also be stored here. My engineering team can help to spread the silt."
"Then, according to what you said, I need to hire another water engineering team, right?"
"Yes."
"How much more do I have to pay?"
"According to my estimation, the cost of dredging the river for every ten meters should be 300 dollars. The distance from Mirror Lake to the Los Angeles river is about 25 kilometers. One kilometer is 30,000 dollars. In other words, I need to spend 750,000 dollars to complete this dredging?"
"I know a water engineering team. I can help you contact them," Felwood said. "And I can help you negotiate the price to $500,000."
Chen Zhao looked at Felwood. The price had been reduced to two-thirds.
"Do you have any requests?" Chen Zhao asked.
"I hope you can leave the construction of the dock to me too," Felwood said.
"How much does it cost to build a dock for yachts?"
"One hundred thousand."
"I need to ask." Chen Zhao had already made up his mind. However, he did not know the market price, so he had to ask a professional to see if Felwood's price was reasonable.
"Of course." Felwood could tell that Chen Zhao was already tempted.
He knew Chen Zhao's mentality quite well. Since Chen Zhao was willing to spend more than a million to build a luxurious villa, he would definitely have strict requirements for his new home and his living environment.
When Chen Zhao heard Felwood's shortcomings, he would definitely spend more to make up for them.
…
Brewster found Smith's apartment. He realized that Smith's door was open.
He knocked on the door first, but there was no response.
Brewster pushed the door open and realized that the apartment was filled with a sour stench and trash.
Brewster frowned. He knew that Smith was usually very sloppy.
However, he did not expect it to be this bad.
"Smith, are you there?" Brewster called. "It's Brewster."
Smith looked dispirited. His hair was messy and there was a lot of unshaven stubble on his face. His eyes were bloodshot and had dark circles.
"Smith, I heard that you lost the bet, but you better not lose your job too." Brewster had come to warn Smith. He was very dissatisfied with him.
Smith's eyes were lifeless. His left fist was clenched tightly and trembled slightly.
Brewster was not young, but he was five centimeters taller than the thin and haggard Smith. He also had a wide waist, so he was not afraid at all when he saw Smith.
"What? Do you want to hit me?"
Smith looked up at Brewster and suddenly grinned. He reached out his hand. "Principal, I didn't mean that. I'll go to class obediently."
"That's more like it." Brewster grabbed Smith's hand.
However, the next moment, Brewster suddenly felt a burning pain in his palm.
"Ah … Let go! Let go! "
Brewster broke free from Smith's hand. He saw that there was a brand mark on his palm.
It was a circular brand with a devil's head on it.
"What did you do?! What did you do to me?! "
Smith stood there with a strange smile on his face.
Brewster's heart jumped. He felt even more uneasy and turned to run.
Smith did not chase after Brewster. Brewster pressed the elevator button crazily.
Ding!
The elevator door opened and Brewster rushed in.
Brewster didn't relax until the elevator door closed. He called Sienna immediately.
"Hello … Ah …" Before Brewster could speak, the elevator suddenly dropped.
